The current conflict, composed of the War against the Taliban and the Illegitimate Removal of Saddam Hussein, has been going on since Sept 18, 2001. That puts us today at 1602 days. Where does that stand in the context of other conflicts? Read More

The new Republican mantra is that Democrats have a "pre-9/11" mentality. According to these constitutional scholars, the events of 9/11 changed everything.

I suggest that we accept their charge and indicate that we have a pre-9/11 mentality. Specifically, ... Read More

The Bush Administration is big on the Ownership Society. In the Ownership Society, you purchase things of value and then you have a stake in the outcome of that thing.

We all believe that the Ownership Society involves stocks or cars or houses or health care or summat. We are all wrong.

The Ownership Society actually involves Read More

It was 1932. The country was in the throes of the depression.

Roosevelt, governor of NY, was elected President. He brought hope, optimism and a clear vision of hope to the Little Guy to the WH. His First Inaugural Address has a tremendous line. Read More

The current culture of sleaze, corruption and rot infesting the Repukeliscum party is amazing. However, what's more amazing is the fecklessness and lack of will on the part of the Dems to pin this sucker on them.

We need to do two things:

The Republicans are actually trying to use this unconstitutional warrantless, non-supervised program of Bush's to monitor everyone and claim that this is a way of keeping us safe.

We must keep up the pressure. Have you written your LTTE about this? If not, do so right now. You may copy and modify my letter if you wish, or use it to whatever end you wish. Just don't sign it "dataguy" Read More

Today's story about scumbags in the Republican Party taking tainted money from Russia really does turn my stomach in a new way:

"Russians contributed $1 million to the group in 1998 specifically to influence DeLay's vote on legislation the International Monetary Fund needed to finance a bailout of the collapsing Russian economy."

We apparently have Delay and the other Repukelinazi bigwigs taking huge money from Russia to send American tax dollars there. Read More

Today, Fri, on Morning Edition, a bipartisan poll (done by both a D and R polling firms together) presented results on a number of issues. These results are both interesting and troubling for those of us unhappy with the current environment. Read More

Fox News Sunday is occasionally interesting, although filled with Foxraganda and outrageous shilling for King George.

Today takes the cake, and pushes Chris Wallace, who once had journalistic ethics, from the status of "journalist" straight into the "whore" category.
